An introduction to an important group of logics that have come to be known under the umbrella term susbstructural. Substructural logics have independently led to significant developments in philosophy, computing and linguistics. This text systematically surveys the results and the important impact that this class of logics has had on wide ranging fields.

Consequence is at the heart of logic; an account of consequence, of what follows from what, offers a vital tool in the evaluation of arguments.

In this book JC Beall and Greg Restall present and defend what thay call logical pluralism, the view that there is more than one genuine deductive consequence relation, a position which has profound implications for many linguists as well as for philosophers. We should not search for...
